A new ilcthe riesare Federal Young Offenders Act, expected to take ef-- plicte dge rei feet on April 1, 1984, will apply only to offences un-; ,ereeacesks. i der the Criminal Code of Canada and other Federal e Fre Prss.statutes. For this reason, new provincial procedures must be established to deal with offen- ces under provincial statutes. The most common offences include violations of the Highway Traffic Act, the Liquor Licence Act, St. olm mbulnce the Trespass to Property Act and the Game and UJnited Way at 89 Per Cent Flsh Act. The eclsting Provincial Offences Act ap- plylng to persons 16 years of age and over provides an appropriate framework for deallng with provin- cial offences. Modifications were made to this legislation to address some of the special circum- stances of young offenders. Proposed modifications are: ail charges against a young provincial offender will have to be brought before a court. Notices of offence, commonly known as tickets, which can dispose of offences out of court, will not be issued to young persons; parents of the young person will be notified of the charges; lower maximum, limits will be placed on the penalties that can be imposed (for example, the fine could often be less than be the fine payable by an adult who -receives a ticket); custodial sentences will be eiiminated for ail offences except breach of probation-, and ail trials will be conducted before a ficials are still hoping to reach ,their, projected goal, says Cy Elsey, media representative for the United Way. "'Ne are continuously op- timistic that we will raise our $1,595,000 target"l. The, Childrens Aid Society of Durham Region employees have raised $3,400 of an ob- jetive of $4,000.

There will be no change in the present law for al persons 16 years of age and over who commit High- way Traffic and Parking Offences constituting -the majority of ail provincial offences..
